ArgoSemi Initiated EIC Project to Advance Silicon for 5G Active Antenna Technology

ArgoSemi, a leading innovator in radio frequency (RF) solutions based in Greece, is proud to announce the official initiation of the Argo Active Antenna project

following the award of the prestigious European Innovation Council (EIC) Accelerator blended finance support. This funding will support the development of cutting-edge, highly integrated RF Front-End Modules (FEMs) for 5G N78 and N79 applications, improving both financial and environmental attributes and furthering ArgoSemi’s mission to drive technological advancements in cellular communications.

The EIC Accelerator is the funding tool from the Horizon Europe program, that targets the scaling of research and innovation efforts, it aims to address global challenges, support the digital and green transitions, and enhance European competitiveness. ArgoSemi’s project, which focuses on energy-efficient, high-performance RF FEMs, aligns perfectly with the program’s priorities in fostering sustainable and advanced digital infrastructure.

“The official initiation of our EIC supported Active Antenna project marks a significant milestone for ArgoSemi”, said Dr Frantzeskakis, CEO of ArgoSemi. “It validates our commitment to developing innovative RF solutions and strengthens our role in advancing 5G technologies essential for Europe’s digital future.”

ArgoSemi’s advanced, high integration active antenna technology, with innovative RF FEMs are designed to significantly reduce the cost, power consumption, and size of Remote Unit (RU) solutions for 5G networks. These improvements will enable telecom operators to deploy more compact, cost and energy efficient systems, thereby lowering operational expenses and contributing to the sustainability of next-generation communication infrastructures.

The EIC financing will facilitate:
– Accelerated research and development of ArgoSemi’s RF FEMs to enhance data rates, energy efficiency and cost efficiency in 5G networks.
– Collaborations with leading European research institutions and industry partners to ensure technological excellence.
– Contribution to the EU’s goals of technological sovereignty and reduced reliance on non-European semiconductor suppliers.
